Bible verse
He has blocked my way so I cannot pass; He has veiled my paths with darkness.
Job 19:8 · BSB
The verses around it, from Job 19.
4 Even if I have truly gone astray, my error concerns me alone.
5 If indeed you would exalt yourselves above me and use my disgrace against me,
6 then understand that it is God who has wronged me and drawn His net around me.
7 Though I cry out, ‘Violence!’ I get no response; though I call for help, there is no justice.
8 He has blocked my way so I cannot pass; He has veiled my paths with darkness.
9 He has stripped me of my honor and removed the crown from my head.
10 He tears me down on every side until I am gone; He uproots my hope like a tree.
11 His anger burns against me, and He counts me among His enemies.
12 His troops advance together; they construct a ramp against me and encamp around my tent.
